I own 2 Pro 2019 models and since last December a Pro 2026.  
So I can’t compare with the Pro 2023.  
AFAIK _ **the only difference** _ is the 2026 having twice amount of RAM, 4GB, which allows you to run more apps / run more apps which use lots of RAM.  
This has _ **zero** _ impact on speed or reliability.

About speed: that would be about the experienced User Interface speed.  
On performance level (executing flows, response to sensors) I don’t see striking differences between Pro 2019 (WLAN) vs Pro 2026 (LAN), but that might be different when it has to handle lots of zigbee/z-wave/Matter devices.

As I surprisingly discovered, the app or web app are not that much snappier / quicker compared to operating the 2019 models.  
Using a phone, a new-ish tablet or a laptop doesn’t make a difference.  
Homey is still the slowest phone/web app amongst every other app / interface I use.  
And, eh, yeah I still like Homey 😂

And I even don’t use Homey’s zigbee, z-wave, Matter-over-Thread.

Conclusion: only if you need to run more apps, or RAM hungry apps, a Pro 2026 is more suitable.

You’d also know the possibility to updrade your Pro 2023 to 8GB RAM, by modding it  
But, that involves DIY, patience and good reading skills; and possibly losing warranty, and the risk of bricking it.
